Title: At 19-07hrs, the newest member..
Post by: cooluncle on 28 May 2012, 07:07:47 pm
Only just dawned on me to join one of these on-line  clubs..
Had my Fazer 1000 for 6 years now, and after my V-Max it was a like a race bike..
It's a 2004 bike in dark grey, standard looking, although I've junked the exup valve, fitted a naughty can and had the bike re-jetted and tuned up on a rolling road. Result was a healthy 129.6 bhp at the back wheel and a grin on ma face that looked quite unsettling..
It's now looking it's age a wee bit so next month it's goin for powder coating, braided lines, new sprockets etc. and a new rear shock.
And maybe even a wash.. 8)

I removed the exup valve due to it siezing up regardless of how it was cleaned and maintained. The bike has lost a little bit in the mid range and gained the tiniest bit of a flat spot low down in the revs, but to be honest you'd struggle to notice any of it.. 8)
